are these films of your father, also the mentioned US Grand Prix still in your families possesion?

Yes, I have some of the 60s films, but not all. I haven't shown or seen them for a long time now.
I also have several hundred color slides from the various races.

Some booklets with list of italian dealers and official service workshops. You usually found them in the Porsche folder together with the owners and service manuals. Details of the back of '67 and '72.Today they are a rare find.

Radios for 1973!!

[911MRP]

Lorenzo, Thank you for posting the radio information for 73. This confirms the Olympia169 was the specific Mexico redio casette model from the factory not the often seen other Becker Mexico models that seem to migrate from Mercedes The 169 Olympia is specifically mentioned on other documents for 73. It is however a relatively niche model on the Mexico lineup. I wonder if the name was on some way an edition related to the Olympic games of that time? I have quite a lot of info on the various Becker Mexico's at time but they are not really Porsche automibolia but information from Becker generally. Becker Mexico 169 was a very expensive 911 option as was the similar Bamberg that appeared in Porsche 911 early calendar 73.

Some years ago I was lucky to find a 1968 USA manual via ebay - my car didn't come with one. When I received it I was surprised to find a bunch of other things coming with it: a service stations list "Europe - Overseas", a special Targa manual, a radio "Frankfurt" manual, a leaflet "key to carefree driving" apparently targeted at US buyers collecting their car in Germany and driving it there, a transparent sticker for the odometer indicating kilometers instead of miles per hour, and a fully transparent picture of a Coupé - non-adhesive, I have no idea what this is for. The other pics are from a small leaflet I found at a swap meet.
